@yujiri @m I mean, the thumbnail and title match that wikipedia’s description of “white savior” pretty well

@m Yeah, this does speak to a larger issue. In essence, they are treating the symptoms of the problem rather than the root. Finding a solution to prevent more kids from becoming orphans in the first place is a better option albeit with less visible optics.

It’s like a doctor who treats the symptoms for your pain, rather than an unknown medicinal professional who maps out the surgery to prevent the issue from ever occurring again.

A delicate and difficult issue.

And then there is:

Pestalozzi (?)
"Charity is the drowning of law in the muck hole of grace."
